"I had never hired a lawn service to take care of my yard. I always did my own. Andrew Guffey was the first person to reach out to me. He gave me a very reasonable quote, and added me to his schedule. He mowed my grass and trimmed. When he left everything was cleaned up. I already have plans for him to do my snow removal...I am very satisfied with Guffeys Lawn Care. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. Thanks Andrew!! Another perk is that you can pay him online. Super simple to do!! Can't get better than that!!"

"I'm not picky when someone comes. If the contractor doesn't show, they always contact me that they will follow up. Usually on time. Nice work. Did not know trimming would cost more, so it is not part of what I get. I just have the guy mow my lawn front and back."

"When I called Osborne professional services I was so hesitant because their name is New but I would like to say that for new company they were amazing. There was nothing that they didnâ t know how to do when it comes from lawn care to helping remove stuff from your home from helping with the roots from happening with concrete making a porch they were great. Iâ m very proud to say that I have a lot of upcoming projects scheduled with Osborneâ s professional services that they will be doing on helping me remodel my home. When it comes to lawn care it was precise perfect lines that even made it look like a little check itâ s bored per my two--year-oldâ s request for it to be fancy. And then when it came to helping with the porch it was perfect they did exactly what I asked there was a few things but I had asked other companies to do and unfortunately they were not able to because a Layout on my home but Osborneâ s professional services was able to get the job done. I really appreciate you guys and look forward to my call in the future thank you berger family"

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in State College, PA

Hiring a professional saves you time and can actually save you money in the long run. Without regular care, your lawn might develop problems like thatch buildup, diseases, or pests, which can be expensive to fix. A pro keeps your lawn healthy, so you can enjoy it without the hassle.

Mowing your lawn yourself is generally cheaper than paying someone to do it. While a lawn mower can cost between $80 and $2,500 depending on the type, professional mowing services charge between $30 and $80 per visit. Investing in your own mower means that over time, you can save money by handling the mowing yourself, especially if you maintain your lawn regularly.

While the wording may vary from company to company, lawn maintenance typically includes all the services that keep your current healthy lawn looking sharp. Think mowing, watering, weeding, and a spring or fall cleanup.

Lawn care digs a bit deeper. These packages may include services that elevate your lawn's health or address an issue throughout the year. Fertilization, pest and weed control, and dethatching all fall into this category.

There is no set-in-stone schedule for mowing your lawn, as each grass variety grows at a different rate depending on the season. Once you determine the type of grass in your lawn and its ideal height, aim to remove no more than the top third of the blade at a time to retain its healthy structure.

In the high growing season, this will likely break down to about once a week, which is why lawn care specialists often offer weekly plans.

Don’t mow your grass if it hasn’t grown more than one-third of its height since you last cut it. For example, if you want grass no more than 2 inches, don’t mow it until it’s 3 inches. Don’t cut your grass when wet, as it clumps together and places more stress on your mower’s blades and makes it harder for the sun to reach the turf. This can lead to mold or disease. Conversely, don’t mow when it’s too dry. But, if you do, be sure to raise your mower’s deck height by about half an inch to encourage slower growth.

Yes, landscaping can significantly add value to your home. High-quality landscape design offers a return on investment of 20% to 30%. A well-maintained lawn and attractive outdoor spaces enhance your property's curb appeal and market value, making it more appealing to potential buyers when you decide to sell.
